Re: Copy to preserve dates function

You were probably doing copy and paste which I think uses the system copy rather than the x2 robust copy.

Re: Copy to preserve dates function

Works for me on both files and folders on 5.4.0.2 Ultimate, Windows 10 Home. Created and modified dates are preserved.

How are you starting the copy to process? keyboard (F5, Ctrl-F5), menu (Edit), toolbar icon

Re: Set default columns for Detailed view)?

Do do you have "save program state on exit, to" checked? (Tools/Options/General (tab), at top) The weird dates are "user friendly date column information" (Tools/Options/Advanced (tab), about halfway down the checkboxes) Have you saved folder setting for specific folders? (Action...

Re: xplorer2 5.310 (last?) BETA

I thought I had read something about caching shell properties. I am not really seeing that with the video properties I mentioned above. When I open a detailed view in a folder with several videos the columns are displayed slowly every time I go to that folder. If there is caching going on I would ex...

Re: xplorer2 5.310 (last?) BETA

I have not run into any problems using the betas so far. The only place I am using some non stock columns is in a couple of layouts that display video frame widths and heights, length and data rates. The beta does not seem any faster displaying that info. the changelog you have linked on that "...

Re: xplorer2 5.308 BETA

I have never had any problem running the beta side by side with the stable. Nikos has been pretty good at preventing any conflicts whenever he adds new settings. I still back up my settings often just in case. I would not want to have to redo all my 90+ user commands.

Re: xplorer2 5.308 BETA

I install the beta in a different folder also. I have never had problems doing that. If you wanted to have separate settings for the beta and stable you could save settings to an ini file. I used to do that because I liked to keep x2 portable but Nikos said using an ini was slower than using the reg...

Re: xplorer2 5.308 BETA

I do not think the beta uses it's own registry keys.

I usually do a backup of my settings before I install any new x2 just to be on the safe side, specially betas.

Re: strange selection behavior

That does change the behavior but not the way I want. With nMarkNewFileMS set to 0 (zero) any files or folders that were selected before pasting remain selected. The pasted files are not selected. When setting nMarkNewFileMS to 200 and 1000 the selection is cleared when pasting but nothing is select...

Re: strange selection behavior

x2 does select the folder that I took files from even if I select another folder before pasting and if I copy and paste files the source folder does not get reselected. It seems strange to me that I would not have noticed this behavior before because I find it pretty annoying to have to unselect tha...
